Why dont we integrate both the apps instead of one ?, it would be easier for the users to have a single app rather than multiple apps.

We are going to support 3 applications that don't overlap:
GMAT Club - a cheap "light" application for everybody who wants to try.
GMAT ToolKit - useful tools for preparation.
GMAT Tests (?) - more than 500+ questions.

There are a few reasons why we don't integrate all functionality in one application:
- one application would cost more. So, if somebody needs only tests or tools at the moment, or want just look at what we have in "light" version, he or she has a choice.
- we want to know how will be popular two different things: tests and tools. So, popularity of separate applications is better marketing indicator how we should move forward.

Looks great. I agree that one single app is preferable.

walker · **Posted:** Mon Aug 24, 2009 11:35 am

Thanks, we will think about one united application when we finish all main parts.

Praetorian · **Posted:** Tue Aug 25, 2009 12:51 am

walker,

this is awesome. :-D

walker · **Posted:** Tue Aug 25, 2009 12:06 pm

Thanks, Praetorian!

I'm very close to finish a next tool, I would say the most powerful one that I'm going to add in the next update.
I hope these tools will really be useful for majority of test takers.

walker · **Posted:** Mon Aug 31, 2009 9:00 pm

We are in the App Store!!! :wink:

Hi Vaivish!

Can you describe the problem in detail, please. When you launch it what does happen? The application crashes? Tools don't launch? Or maybe you have problem with downloading?

Please, PM me more information about the issue and I'll do my best to help you.

Regards,
Walker

No, sorry. It works only for OS 3.0 or latter.

Impressive application!
Feature request: In the "Timer" tool would it be possible to indicate what question one should be on at any given time during the test?

Thanks for your words and suggestion! I'm going to add this feature in next update. I PM a few questions.

We have completed our work on next, the most powerful tool: BOOKS - must-have supplement to The Official Guide 12th Edition (OG12) and The Official Guide 11th Edition (OG11). It will take a few weeks for Apple to accept the update.

With BOOKS you will easily keep your error/time log!
